Description

This No Bake Lemon Blueberry Dessert is a refreshing and easy-to-make treat featuring a buttery graham cracker crust, a creamy lemon pudding layer, sweet blueberry topping, and a fluffy whipped cream finish. Perfect for warm days or when you want a simple yet impressive dessert without turning on the oven.

Ingredients

Crust

  • 3 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 3/4 cup butter, melted

Lemon Layer

  • 2 (8 oz.) packages cream cheese, room temperature
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/3 cup lemon juice
  • 1 cup 2% milk
  • 3.4 oz box instant lemon pudding mix

Blueberry Layer

  • 21 oz can blueberry pie filling

Topping

  • 16 oz tub frozen whipped topping, thawed
  • Reserved 1/2 cup graham cracker crumbs (optional, from crust mixing)

Instructions

  1. Prepare Graham Cracker Crust: In a bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs with the melted butter and mix well. Reserve 1/2 cup of this crumb mixture for optional topping. Press the remaining crumbs evenly onto the bottom of a 13 x 9 inch dish to form the crust. Chill in the refrigerator to let it set.
  2. Make Lemon Layer: In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese and granulated sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy. Add the lemon juice and 2% milk, mixing until fully incorporated. Then, add the dry instant lemon pudding mix and beat until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
  3. Assemble Lemon Layer: Spread the prepared lemon pudding mixture evenly over the chilled graham cracker crust in the dish.
  4. Add Blueberry Layer: Spoon the blueberry pie filling gently over the lemon layer and spread it carefully to cover the lemon layer evenly without mixing the layers.
  5. Top with Whipped Topping: Spread the thawed whipped topping over the blueberry layer until fully covered. Sprinkle the reserved 1/2 cup of graham cracker crumbs over the top for extra texture and appearance if desired.
  6. Chill to Set: Place the assembled dessert in the refrigerator and allow it to set for at least 2 hours before serving. Keep refrigerated until ready to serve and enjoy this cool, creamy, tangy dessert.

Notes

  • Room temperature cream cheese makes mixing easier and results in a smoother lemon layer.
  • Chilling the crust and the assembled dessert ensures firm structure and better flavor melding.
  • Use fresh lemon juice for the best lemon flavor in the pudding layer.
  • The reserved graham cracker crumbs add a nice crunch on top but can be omitted if preferred.
  • This dessert keeps well refrigerated for up to 2 days, but it’s best enjoyed fresh.
